In the vastness of existence, where the magical and the mundane intertwine, where a skeleton - intricately connected bones - collide, we find ourselves on a journey unlike any other. It begins in a world of creaturely fantasies and seductive contradictions. At the centre of it all is Bones, a lowly, weak skeleton who possesses something special: perception. Tired of the monotonous existence of his skeletal brethren, of endless decay and hundreds of years spent in the damp, dark underground. Driven by a deep desire to discover the meaning of a real life, Bones ventured out into the world outside, a chaotic world of humans, a world full of joy, excitement and sadness... And then his path crosses with Lealia, an aristocratic girl on the run from a forced marriage and the stifling bonds of her aristocratic family. Their shy meeting forms the basis of an extraordinary relationship, a testament to the power of self-discovery and the beauty of a unique love. Together they will uncover conspiracies, face formidable enemies and fight to protect their own identities. Prepare for a story that perfectly blends dark humour with philosophical reflection, a tale where the mundane meets the magical, and an unlikely but deeply moving love story. It is a journey to find the meaning of life, the desire for freedom...

A soul whose coming is unpredictable but sure like the mist. Karl has awoken, and what path will he leave behind? Would it be the same?... Like before? This is the story of the "Son of the fallen empire" or is it the living error? Or perhaps...The reaper!

Gifted a candle that was said to make wishes come true, Alice Clemente burned it to find herself awake in a different world. She had wished for a life of adventure away from the city and its routine. With her wish granted, she was no longer in the 21st century and was instead lost in the middle of the Kingdom of Gladiolum, a place reminiscent of the 1800s. With luck, she soon gained connections to the rich and powerful of this new world— the nobility. However, how much of it was good and how much of it would eventually be detrimental? After all, mingling with royals not only meant extravagance and daily parties. It also meant warfare and death. Caught in the middle of the two princes and other nobles, Alice would soon have to face the battle between those two royal brothers― a fight for the throne. She had wished for adventure, after all, and she received just as such. Kept in the center of all this, would Alice be able to emerge from the rabbit hole unscathed? Or will the overwhelming troubles of love and war be too much for her to bear? *** “And what if you, too, are unable to help?” Alice threw the question back. “What if helping would risk everything?” Spade didn’t miss a beat. “You are everything.” “Don’t say things that you don’t mean,” Alice chided. “You’ll leave a trail of broken hearts.” “And would you believe me if I say that I have no intention of breaking yours?” Spade countered. “However, mine is yours to play with. Shatter it, fix it, do anything you desire. As long as it feels the warmth of your hand, I am content.” *** Image used in cover not mine.

The small town of HeathCroft was well-known for its family of mysterious billionaires, the Zuris. Lauriel and James Zuri, the parents, were well-liked philanthropists who would visit an orphanage every few years and adopt a child to welcome into their family. All the children previously adopted by the Zuri's had something special about them-some talent or potential that made them deserving of a new home. The people of HeathCroft believed that the Zuris were doing a noble act by giving these children a chance to exercise their potential and let them be. However, when the newest arrival, Adrianne Zuri, joined the family, it raised a couple eyebrows. Adrianne Zuri went against all the invisible requirements the townspeople believed you needed to complete to become a Zuri. She was illiterate, didn't seem to have any creativity in her blood, and was overall as ordinary as one could be in a family of extraordinary individuals. What the HeathCroftian townspeople didn't know was that Adrianne was by far the most peculiar member of the entire Zuri family. ---- credits to @NoelleAnn397 for the cover
